Statue of Khurshidbanu Natavan

The statue depicts a standing figure carved in marble with a composed expression. It occupies a place in the Lakeside Park as part of the town's public spaces.

The monument was installed in 2017 and came from a partnership agreement between this French town and Ismayilli in Azerbaijan. This connection was formally established in 2015.

The statue commemorates a figure who championed education and literary expression in her homeland. Visitors sense here a connection between Azerbaijani and European intellectual traditions.

The monument sits in the public park right by the water and is freely accessible. The area is well-maintained, making it easy for visitors to explore on foot.

A notable French literary figure met the person depicted here while in Baku and was impressed enough to write about her later. This literary connection helped bring greater recognition to her work in Europe.
